When Beatriz, author of To Be Gourmet, told me she wanted to make the Pastel Vasco recipe for our blog I didn’t hesitate to tell her "Go ahead!", because it’s one of my favorite cakes.

Pavlova is a meringue-based cake, crisp on the outside and wonderfully creamy on the inside. Luisa, author of Cocinando con mi Carmela, suggests making it with a chocolate meringue base, filled with mascarpone and chocolate cream. She also adds a hint of coffee and hazelnuts... Can you imagine a better combination?

Lemon curd is a typical English cream made from lemon juice and eggs. It has a fantastic tangy note that makes it ideal for filling cakes, tartlets or accompanying simple toast. It also pairs very well with plain yogurt, cream, ice cream… The combinations are endless!
